Whats the cost of the header replication?

I thought GTM were basically clone HKS manifolds?

Mine broke to 3 peices. Actually, both of them broke on me.

HKS manifolds are the worst. My friend's HKS one on his EVO 8 broke so many times that it had more welds then hair on my head.

I have had 4 cracked manifolds so far with my GTM kit. 1 time on the right side and just discovered that the left side is cracked again for the 3rd time. Flex joints were added to exhaust before the last set of manifolds were installed but still manifold cracked after less than a few thousand miles. Would love to get my hands on those stainless manifolds. I have emailed the above mentioned shop. No reply yet but I'm hoping they get back with me.
